:00:51. > :00:53.as you can see from this picture taken this morning in Bingley.

:00:54. > :00:55.It is going to be brighter eventually tomorrow,

:02:08. > :02:11.Today, Mr Wilks's grandparents paid tribute to the teenager.

:02:12. > :02:18.Everybody, yeah, everybody loves him.

:02:19. > :02:22.I was the last person to see him go out, and it really hurt me

:02:23. > :02:25.There are many questions to be answered now...

:02:26. > :02:30.Throughout the day, friends and relatives laid flowers

:02:31. > :02:37.One message read simply, to daddy, you were taking too soon.

:02:38. > :02:40.Well, police say that although their enquiries

:02:41. > :02:42.are at an early stage, they believe the victim

:02:43. > :02:46.As a result, they are increasing patrols in the area

:02:47. > :02:52.Police say a 49-year-old man is being held on suspicion of murder.

:02:53. > :02:55.At his weekly press call, the Leeds United manager said

:02:56. > :03:00.that the club will offer support to Raheem 's brother Malik,

:03:01. > :03:03.who is in the squad for this weekend's FA Cup game against

:03:04. > :03:08.My job is to focus on supporting him and how he feels and how he is,

:03:09. > :03:10.and we are giving him the best support possible, and

:03:11. > :03:14.That's what we are as a club, as the staff, and as everyone

:03:15. > :03:24.Specially trained liaison officers are now supporting the victim's

:03:25. > :03:27.family at this difficult time. Police say they understand what

:03:28. > :03:30.happened here will cause concern within the community. More flowers

:03:31. > :03:33.were laid at the scene tonight and additional neighbourhood policing

:03:34. > :03:39.teams will be on the street to provide reassurance to local people.

:03:40. > :03:43.We are awaiting the results of a postmortem into of death but tonight

:03:44. > :03:46.West Yorkshire Police say they want to hear from anyone who may have

:03:47. > :03:51.been in the area yesterday witnessed anything, or indeed who may have

:03:52. > :03:52.information about what happened. Get in touch and help them with the

:03:53. > :03:54.investigation. People living in a block of flats

:03:55. > :03:57.say they feel "held to ransom" after their flood insurance shot up

:03:58. > :04:00.to more than ?26,000 a year. The insurance is split between 12

:04:01. > :04:02.flats in Topcliffe near Thirsk that were badly flooded

:04:03. > :04:05.in September 2012. Residents say they can't even move

:04:06. > :04:08.out unless they're prepared to sell the flats for much less

:04:09. > :04:23.than they're worth. Topcliffe mill back in 2012, a year

:04:24. > :04:26.that many people here want to forget. More than four years on, and

:04:27. > :04:31.the flood water may have disappeared but the people living here are still

:04:32. > :04:36.paying the price. It is a high price. Back then, the insurance was

:04:37. > :04:41.?1500 per year and now it is more than ?26,000.

:04:42. > :04:45.So it was all throughout all of the flat.

:04:46. > :04:48.For residents like Ruth, the service charge on their homes is around ?400

:04:49. > :04:52.per month. It is like another mortgage every

:04:53. > :04:57.month, basically. People are struggling and we are all

:04:58. > :04:59.struggling. We are 12 normal homeowners who have unfortunately

:05:00. > :05:03.been in this position where we have been flooded, but we are still

:05:04. > :05:07.paying the price. Back in September 2012, this entire

:05:08. > :05:11.area was completely underwater, but a lot of people that were affected

:05:12. > :05:14.by flooding are protected under a Government scheme which keeps

:05:15. > :05:17.insurance low. Because the people living here are leaseholders rather

:05:18. > :05:23.than freeholders, they are not protected in the same way. But it is

:05:24. > :05:27.not just the monthly cost. Martin lives a few doors down on what

:05:28. > :05:30.bothers him most is the ?75,000 insurance access they will have to

:05:31. > :05:36.pay if this home is damaged. It is unsustainable. Not only as a

:05:37. > :05:45.premium being extremely high, but with the level of the access, it

:05:46. > :05:51.makes the policy value less. It is frustrating and demoralising and we

:05:52. > :05:56.all dread that this time of year. Our buildings need flood insurance.

:05:57. > :05:59.The local MP says this is a top priority of his.

:06:00. > :06:02.The scheme obviously has not worked, so we must go through the process

:06:03. > :06:05.again. We need to meet with the Secretary of State again, I

:06:06. > :06:10.requested an interview with Andrea Leadsom, and we need to meet with

:06:11. > :06:13.insurance companies again. We need to find networks and find a

:06:14. > :06:15.solution. British insurance brokers

:06:16. > :06:20.Association says they are launching a scheme to help leaseholders get

:06:21. > :06:24.cover. In the meantime, people like Ruth and Martin are wondering how

:06:25. > :06:25.they will manage to pay this year's insurance, more than four years

:06:26. > :06:27.since their homes were flooded. Graeme Trudgill is from the British

:06:28. > :06:29.Insurance Brokers' Association. I asked him why the Flood Re scheme

:06:30. > :06:35.doesn't help leaseholders. When the Government were deciding

:06:36. > :06:38.where to draw the line about what is and is not covered,

:06:39. > :06:40.they decided that domestic property owners are in,

:06:41. > :06:42.but commercial property And they have drawn

:06:43. > :06:46.the line where there are basically three flats -

:06:47. > :06:49.that's the limit. If it's more than that,

:06:50. > :06:54.then it's not in Flood Re. The reason they decided

:06:55. > :06:57.upon that is because they felt that there was not a systemic issue

:06:58. > :07:00.across the UK for commercial risks. They felt that they couldn't

:07:01. > :07:04.intervene with state aid, because state aid rules

:07:05. > :07:06.on commercial risks. So that was their decision,

:07:07. > :07:07.unfortunately. OK, so, in these circumstances,

:07:08. > :07:11.then, obviously where there are more than three flats,

:07:12. > :07:14.what do people do? Well, they are again

:07:15. > :07:18.looking in the open market, so the British Insurance Brokers'

:07:19. > :07:21.Association is doing everything we can with our insurance brokers

:07:22. > :07:25.to help people access insurance. And if they have taken resilience

:07:26. > :07:28.measures out in their property, and if they have basically got hard

:07:29. > :07:32.floors now, and moved the electrical points up the wall,

:07:33. > :07:35.and perhaps they have got some door shields and things like that,

:07:36. > :07:37.that could make a big difference to the acceptability

:07:38. > :07:39.to the insurance industry and the British Insurance Brokers'

:07:40. > :07:42.Association has put a new scheme together for commercial properties,

:07:43. > :07:46.where we are doing our very best to try to use those resilience

:07:47. > :07:49.measures using the latest mapping technology as well

:07:50. > :07:54.to try to get them insurance. Is this a sign that the insurance

:07:55. > :07:57.industry is not doing enough to help, and that there are perhaps

:07:58. > :08:01.some blank spots? I think the insurance

:08:02. > :08:03.industry is very aware We are certainly doing

:08:04. > :08:11.all that we can. It's very difficult,

:08:12. > :08:13.cos insurance is for the unexpected, so if you're in a property

:08:14. > :08:15.by a river that's flooded on a regular basis, it's very

:08:16. > :08:18.difficult to ensure that. But if we work with

:08:19. > :08:23.the Environment Agency and we look at the work they are doing,

:08:24. > :08:26.and with the property owner, what resilience they can build

:08:27. > :08:28.into their property, then it is possible for us

:08:29. > :08:30.to work with the market We've had quite a good bit

:08:31. > :08:35.of success since we've launched this new facility in the last few weeks,

:08:36. > :08:38.so please work with us Also to say that there are grants

:08:39. > :08:42.still available from the Government up until March time -

:08:43. > :08:45.if you were flooded by storms Desmond, Eva, or Frank,

:08:46. > :08:47.there is money available to build in this resilience which can then

:08:48. > :08:50.make you more easily insurable. Graeme Trudgill,

:08:51. > :08:52.thank you very much. A Bradford teenager who made a pipe

:08:53. > :08:56.bomb in his bedroom has been cleared The 17-year-old was found not guilty

:08:57. > :09:00.at Leeds Crown Court of the terrorism offence,

:09:01. > :09:03.but was convicted of a lesser charge The student - who can't be named

:09:04. > :09:09.because of his age - said he never intended to use

:09:10. > :09:12.the pipe bomb. Police found the device

:09:13. > :09:14.in his bedroom, which was decorated A West Yorkshire MP is urging

:09:15. > :09:21.the Government to commit to a national campaign to tackle

:09:22. > :09:24.a fall in the number of women having More than a quarter of women don't

:09:25. > :09:29.have regular smear tests. During a Commons debate,

:09:30. > :09:31.Dewsbury MP Paula Sherriff looked at how more women could be

:09:32. > :09:40.encouraged to book appointments. Will the minister commit

:09:41. > :09:42.to a national campaign to prioritise and increase the level

:09:43. > :09:44.of cervical screening attendance? And how will the Government

:09:45. > :09:46.encourage cooperation between the different levels

:09:47. > :09:48.of the health service to ensure that we see cervical screening

:09:49. > :09:54.rates rise once again? Parents of three and four-year-old

:09:55. > :09:56.children in North Yorkshire will soon be able to receive double

:09:57. > :09:59.the amount of free childcare Eligible parents will be able

:10:00. > :10:03.to claim up to 30 hours of childcare per week for all eligible three-

:10:04. > :10:06.and four-year-olds from April, doubling the existing 15 hours

:10:07. > :10:11.they can currently claim. Parents in York are already

:10:12. > :10:14.benefiting from the scheme, which is expected to be rolled out

:10:15. > :10:17.nationally by the end of the year. The announcement has been welcomed

:10:18. > :10:20.but nursery bosses say the money they receive is unlikely

:10:21. > :10:25.to cover their costs. Sheffield Theatres are celebrating

:10:26. > :10:27.after being awarded the title of Regional Theatre of the Year

:10:28. > :10:29.for the third time. Industry judges were impressed

:10:50. > :10:54.in London but has struggled to be formally recognised

:10:55. > :10:57.as a British citizen. Today, though, that changed,

:11:00. > :11:05.of presenting you with your After years of waiting,

:11:06. > :11:09.Emmy van Deurzen is now a citizen of the Netherlands

:11:10. > :11:12.and Great Britain. I had no idea how really

:11:13. > :11:16.pleased I would be to feel She lives in Sheffield

:11:17. > :11:22.and works in London, where she runs a business

:11:23. > :11:26.employing 70 people. In her own words, she's worked

:11:27. > :11:29.and paid taxes for 40 years here, but she was initially rejected

:11:30. > :11:33.for citizenship, even though she had been granted

:11:34. > :11:36.indefinite leave to remain. It is as if that trust you have

:11:37. > :11:39.built up between yourself and the country that

:11:40. > :11:43.you have adopted, and that you think has adopted you,

:11:44. > :11:47.suddenly rejects you. For those looking for citizenship,

:11:48. > :11:52.an 85-page form awaits. Crucially, you need to provide

:12:47. > :12:54.you were at school? A new project in Bradford

:12:55. > :12:57.is using role models from black and Asian communities to motivate

:12:58. > :13:02.youngsters to achieve more. One of the city's MPs is hosting

:13:03. > :13:05.a series of events to highlight local success stories,

:13:29. > :13:33.from BME communities. Mabs grew up in Girlington

:13:34. > :13:35.in Bradford, and is now It does make me feel immensely proud

:13:36. > :13:41.as to what I have achieved. What's really important for me is,

:13:52. > :13:55.at the leadership forum. Mabs is foremost a police officer,

:13:56. > :13:58.but he feels he also has a duty I understand being sat there and not

:13:59. > :14:02.having those aspirations, not having the confidence,

:14:03. > :14:05.thinking that you could be the next police officer,

:14:27. > :14:29.hosted by MP Naz Shah, highlighting the importance of role

:14:30. > :14:34.models in the BME communities. I think that assembly

:14:35. > :14:37.was really inspiring and it gave me hope and confidence

:14:38. > :14:40.in what my future could be like. It's really inspiring,

:15:31. > :15:34.weekend, and Leeds and Huddersfield are our only two sides left

:15:35. > :15:37.in the competition. Leeds face the lowest-ranked team

:15:38. > :15:41.in the cup and Huddersfield Both West Yorkshire clubs

:15:42. > :15:46.are in the race for promotion to the Championship,

:15:47. > :15:49.but a cup run could be a good distraction and

:15:50. > :15:52.bring in extra funds. Ah, the magic of the Cup - a good

:15:53. > :15:59.excuse to take into the archive. 1970 is the last and only time Leeds

:16:00. > :16:05.have played a Sutton United... With a helping hand

:16:06. > :16:15.from the Sutton goalkeeper. Fast-forward 47 years and Leeds

:16:16. > :16:17.qualify to face Sutton on Sunday Sutton are 84 places below them

:16:18. > :16:23.in the league pyramid, but Leeds will be taking

:16:24. > :16:27.nothing for granted. We stay determined, we stay

:16:28. > :16:30.focused, and we respect our opponents in every game

:16:31. > :16:32.that we play. But what we do is make

:16:33. > :16:35.sure we put our best football on the pitch,

:16:36. > :16:37.and we try and prepare Searching through the FA Cup archive

:16:38. > :16:41.again, and the last time Huddersfield faced Rochdale

:16:42. > :16:45.in the competition was back in 1991. The Terriers won it 2-1,

:16:46. > :16:49.thanks to goals by Iwan Roberts Hopefully the 18-mile

:16:50. > :16:54.trip to Rochdale will be as easy as the last round,

:16:55. > :16:57.where Huddersfield But are there any fears a cup run

:16:58. > :17:05.could distract the site It is not possible to use those two

:17:06. > :17:14.words in one sentence. It is the oldest football

:17:15. > :17:17.competition in the world. Everybody is speaking about this FA

:17:18. > :17:22.Cup competition all over the world, and we are able to be a part of it,

:17:23. > :17:26.and we'd like to be in the draw Both managers have their eyes

:17:27. > :17:31.firmly set on promotion to the Premier League,

:17:32. > :17:34.but a cup run would be a bonus, Either way, it will be another

:17:35. > :17:55.match for the archives. The enthusiasm. Neither of our sides

:17:56. > :17:59.are featured in live television this weekend, but there will be

:18:52. > :18:53.the wonderful Sitwell Park Golf Club in Rotherham.

:18:54. > :18:56.It was all to do with his golf initiative called Wee Willetts

:18:57. > :19:02.for the youngsters trying to get into the game.

:19:03. > :19:05.It's good that one of the nice guys of sports got to

:19:06. > :19:15.But he's quick not to forget his roots.

:19:16. > :19:19.A packed golf club in Rotherham, and his Wee Willetts golf initiative

:19:20. > :19:25.Look at the faces of pride on these young fellas,

:19:26. > :19:33.We are just trying to get local kids from local areas to golf courses

:19:34. > :19:37.You know, obviously, as a junior or as a men's amateur,

:19:38. > :19:39.playing in obviously the scratch team and stuff.

:19:40. > :19:42.You know, they've got a great little system in the six-week colleges

:19:43. > :19:44.where kids of any age, ranging from as small

:19:45. > :19:48.as they want to be up to 16 or 17, you know, can actually play these

:19:49. > :19:51.little miniature tournaments, and it is just to see if anyone that

:19:52. > :19:53.might not have ordinarily wanted to actually takes it

:19:54. > :20:05.Danny is now in full training for the new season,

:20:06. > :20:13.I think it's good to still look back and, kind of, relive what you did,

:20:14. > :20:16.and look back and applaud yourself, I guess, for your achievements.

:20:17. > :20:19.But you've got to move on, obviously, cos you've got to keep

:20:20. > :20:21.trying to get better and keep improving.

:20:22. > :20:24.You know, after all this, it was a bit of a whirlwind

:20:25. > :20:27.of everything that went on, and the game slumped a little bit,

:20:28. > :20:31.but we've been training really hard and working really hard,

:20:32. > :20:34.and we've not quite seen the results of that yet,

:20:35. > :20:37.but I'm a firm believer that if you keep working hard and stuff,

:20:38. > :20:39.and doing the right things, then things can very

:20:40. > :20:45.Danny will be embarking on nonstop golf around the world fairly soon.

:20:46. > :20:49.But this shot is sure to be one he will treasure.

:20:50. > :20:51.But who will ever forget this moment?

:20:52. > :20:54.The chat with his wife on the telephone after he'd won

:20:55. > :20:59.at Augusta, with a new born baby waiting there as well.

:21:00. > :21:02.It is lovely to see you giving so much back to the game.

:21:03. > :21:03.Good luck. I'll see you, Danny.

:21:04. > :21:13.Great to see the faces of the kids getting medals. It was a wonderful

:21:14. > :21:14.night. Now, Joanne Ford knows

:21:15. > :21:16.all about facing challenges. She's a mother of two from Bedale,

:21:17. > :21:19.who was diagnosed with cervical cancer 20 years ago,

:21:20. > :21:22.and more recently had major surgery to rebuild part of her spine

:21:23. > :21:26.after a riding accident. Despite all that, she's now training

:21:27. > :21:29.for a charity race day in York She's got five months to learn how

:21:30. > :21:36.to become a jockey before racing in front of thousands

:21:37. > :21:38.of people in June. Carla Fowler has been to find out

:21:39. > :21:43.how the training's going. Stepping up to the challenge,

:21:44. > :21:45.Joanne Ford has been selected by national charity

:21:46. > :21:49.Macmillan Cancer Support to be one of 12 riders competing in their big

:21:50. > :21:57.charity race day on June 17 in York. Between now and then, each rider

:21:58. > :21:59.faces gruelling daily training. They have had to find a racehorse,

:22:00. > :22:02.a professional trainer, and pledged to raise

:22:03. > :22:05.thousands in funds. Until I came here for the first time

:22:06. > :22:08.and I rode for my first two days, I had no idea how fit you really do

:22:09. > :22:11.need to be. I was in agony on the

:22:12. > :22:17.Saturday morning. I struggled to walk down

:22:18. > :22:19.the stairs forwards, and now, two or three weeks in,

:22:20. > :22:22.it's really sunk in how fit these people are and how

:22:23. > :22:24.fit you need to be. I need the experience

:22:25. > :22:27.and I need to learn. It's very different from any riding

:22:28. > :22:29.I've ever done before. Some of these horses

:22:30. > :22:32.are worth six figures, and Jo has to pass a jockey test

:22:33. > :22:35.in May to make her She's fought cancer twice,

:22:36. > :22:44.and seven years ago had major back surgery when she was told

:22:45. > :22:47.she would never ride again. In just five months,

:22:48. > :22:51.Jo will take part in the oldest and biggest charity race day

:22:52. > :22:52.in the world. Last year, just short of half

:22:53. > :22:59.?1 million was raised in one day. She's got to learn how to raise

:23:00. > :23:04.a thoroughbred in York in front She's got to be jockey fit

:23:05. > :23:10.and she has two pass the assessment She has got to source her own

:23:11. > :23:16.racehorse to race, and we are also challenging her to raise as much

:23:17. > :23:18.money as possible for And this north Yorkshire racing yard

:23:19. > :23:23.has the right form to put Jo in the lead on race day,

:23:24. > :23:25.having trained the Macmillan We have done the same thing

:23:26. > :23:30.for the last few years. It's a really good cause

:23:31. > :23:33.and if there's anything we can do to help with it all,

:23:34. > :23:36.I'm happy to go along with it. Obviously she could ride

:23:37. > :23:39.when she came to us to start with, which was a big help,

:23:40. > :23:41.but changing from riding normally to riding a short

:23:42. > :23:43.is like riding like a jockey, which is a big difference,

:23:44. > :23:46.so she is coming and improving It takes nerves of steel to ride

:23:47. > :23:50.a racehorse as an amateur, but Jo's battles with cancer

:23:51. > :23:53.and surgery have given her them. She is getting ready to make

:23:54. > :23:57.the ride of her life. Carla Fowler,

:23:58. > :24:05.BBC Look North, Richmond. All be very best to her. We will

:24:06. > :24:09.keep you posted. Good luck to her. Now let's take a look

:24:10. > :24:16.at the weather. Has the cold weather finally

:24:17. > :24:22.disappeared? It is disappearing, yes. Not

:24:23. > :24:26.tonight,... But yes, it will start milder and pushing from the south.

:24:27. > :24:30.You will not it by tomorrow, temperatures a few degrees above

:24:31. > :24:34.what they have been, but still six or seven Celsius. We would like it

:24:35. > :24:38.warmer than that, though. The photographs, the first one sums up

:24:39. > :24:41.most of the mornings this week. Misty and frosty. The second picture

:24:42. > :24:45.was taken this morning before that Kyle reached the top of the hill.

:24:46. > :24:52.Some missed in the valley, looking down from there, and the third

:24:53. > :24:54.picture shows how grim and bleak it has been near Abbotsford. This was

:24:55. > :25:03.taken this morning. Keep your pictures coming in. You can tweak me

:25:04. > :25:10.or send your pictures and. It will get less cold over the week, and by

:25:11. > :25:14.next week, the gays could be in double figures. It will feel

:25:15. > :25:17.different then. Tomorrow, with less cold air, coming with some cloud and

:25:18. > :25:22.rain. Arriving overnight, but it will linger for a time to tomorrow.

:25:23. > :25:25.Particularly the cloud. At rain opens the door for Atlantic

:25:26. > :25:29.influence to our weather, which means milder and a warmer body of

:25:30. > :25:32.water, but also unsettled with several areas of low pressure

:25:33. > :25:36.heading in our direction over the next few days until next week as

:25:37. > :25:40.well. Some of us had some sunshine to this morning, but a lot of cloud

:25:41. > :25:43.in general, and a bit of missed out there at the moment. Gradually the

:25:44. > :25:47.receiving, we will start to see epics of rain and drizzle sped up

:25:48. > :25:51.from the south, and after that first spell, further spells from the West.

:25:52. > :25:57.More cloud means not as cold as last night, with temperatures down to

:25:58. > :26:04.around two Celsius. So, the sun will rise in the morning at around 8am.

:26:05. > :26:09.It AM on the nose, setting at 4:39pm. These are the high waters.

:26:10. > :26:14.Start the morning with a lot of cloud. Not as bitingly cold as it

:26:15. > :26:18.has been but a lot of cloud. Outbreaks of rain and drizzle is not

:26:19. > :26:20.pleasant through the morning. An improvement but a slow improvement

:26:21. > :26:24.through the day, with more in the way of dry weather. Hopeful that

:26:25. > :26:28.cloud will start to break before Sunset, some parts of west Yorkshire

:26:29. > :26:32.and the Dales and the Peak District could see brightness before the end

:26:33. > :26:36.of the day. Generally a lot of cloud tomorrow. Even though temperatures

:26:37. > :26:40.will be higher, it could feel disappointing. Nevertheless, getting

:26:41. > :26:45.up to around six or seven Celsius. Looking further into Sunday, quite a

:26:46. > :26:50.lot of uncertainty in the forecast on Sunday. An area of rain affects

:26:51. > :26:53.the UK, we would like to keep in touch with the forecast, because it

:26:54. > :26:57.could change. We'll start with a decent start but hiding over with

:26:58. > :27:01.rain spreading of the south and west. At the moment, looking set to

:27:02. > :27:01.affect South Yorkshire, but could change. Milder into next

:27:02. > :27:06.affect South Yorkshire, but could change. Milder into next week.

:27:07. > :27:12.We have an update at 8pm. And back with the latest news at 10:30pm.

:27:13. > :27:16.Enjoy your weekend. Bye-bye.
